Like a fantasy

As real as Illusion

Yu Qiping's paintings are good, just like fantasy, and not 'real' images and their characters. Inside, the picture is in love; Half half obsessed with half of the leaves, and the hiding and hiding is generally elusive. It is like watching Teacher Yu's smile with a red fashion mirror rack. Half of the scholars are deeply the artist's humor. Essence

Yu Qiping's paintings are as good as they look real as illusions, however, their images and figures depicted seem to appear to be not 'real', producing a kind of humble, cunning, confusing, serene sense, looks like when it is false, it might be true or vice versa. If you go inside the image, you will be in love with it; if you go away from the image, you will enjoy its elegance. In your eyes, the image might be half obsessed, half alienated , unpredictable like hide-and-seek, just like watching Mr. Yu's smiling face wearing a red fashionable frame, half a scholar's deepness, half an artist's humor. In fact, what's inside is half sea water and the other half flame.

Yu Qiping casts us a ignorant world. It is restrained, implicit, and sinking, but the truth in the world is blooming. It can evoke your sense of tranquility. The desire for the lyrical of the true lyrical, the longing for mysterious and joy -wisdom here is meaningless, and it is really meaningful to the sinking of aesthetic survival.

This pursuit is also reflected in Yu Qiping's painting skills. He deeply understood the traditional techniques of Chinese painting, but he also made modernist transformation and formed his own unique painting vocabulary on this basis. Vocabulary constitutes the vocabulary foundation of the aesthetic tendency of "New Orientalism". I like Yu Qiping's painting aesthetics very much: a style and tendency that penetrates extremely strong in New Oriental. It is not a simple return of Buddhist Zen, nor is it the reproduction of Taoism's thoughts, but in the modern background, through the avoidance of mechanical, crowded, busy, unnecessary, etc. In the pursuit and interpretation of the state of the world, I named it "New Orientalism" painting: It pursues the self -sightedness, not awakening, and chaos. Yu Qiping has created vague world for us. It is introverted, reserved, and intoxicated, but the truth of the world is blooming. It can arouse your sense of tranquility, focus and desire for the things that persist, and conflicts are dissolved and turned Into the Thirs for Authentic Lyricism, The Yearning for mysterious!

This pursuit is also reflected in Yu Qiping's painting skills. He has a deep understanding of various traditional techniques of Chinese painting, but has made modernistic transformations to them; on this basis he has formed his own unique painting vocabulary. This vocabulary constitutes the lexical basis of the aesthetic tendency of “Neo-Orientalism”. I like his painting aesthetics very much: a style and an inclination permeated with a very strong new oriental meaning. It is not a simple return to Buddhist Zen, nor is it a reproduction of Taoism's thought of detachment from the world, but in a modern context. Through the avoidance of mechanical, crowded, busy, useless and other living conditions, it shows the true nature of human beings, the artist intends to reveal the pursuit and interpretation of the state of Being Human Beings in the World. I named it "new Orientalism" Painting: What it pursues is nothingness, unawareness, chaos and unity.
